Hello,

Thank you for your question.

In Dynamics 365, changing the user interface language via personalized settings will update the display names of standard entities and fields, but custom tables and fields require additional configuration to support multilingual display.

Recommended Solution:

Add Translations for Custom Components
To ensure that custom tables and fields reflect the selected language, you need to:

Export the solution containing your custom entities.

Use the Export Translations feature to generate a .zip file with a .csv file inside.

Open the .csv file and provide translations for each language code (e.g., pt-PT, en-US).

Re-import the updated translation file using the Import Translations option.

Publish All Customizations
After importing translations, make sure to publish all customizations so that the changes take effect across the environment.

Verify Language Availability
Ensure that the target language is enabled in the system under:

Settings > Administration > Languages

Clear Cache or Reopen Session
Sometimes, changes may not appear immediately. Try clearing the browser cache or logging out and back in to refresh the UI.

This process ensures that custom components are localized and respond to user language preferences just like standard entities.

Please verify if this response was helpful.
Best regards.
